Translator was disrespectful and kept promoting their fanfic. So selfish. The TL is like the Velma creator who really hates Scooby Doo but still made a whole show about it.

My guess is this translator had the same ulterior motive as the Velma creator, which is to leech off of a popular work/title to get views for themselves.

You can say you don't like the work once or twice. But staying around and scattering your TL notes all over the whole manhwa just to hate on it, is just pathetic. (I hope I never see this TL again).

To anyone else who hated this, it's okay to hate the work if that's how you feel, but cursing the author, by praying and hoping for their financial downfall, is so trashy. It's not like they're promoting racism, sexism, or actual sexual harassment in their work.

If you think it does promote the sexual harassment, let me ask, how?? Do you think Killing Stalking is promoting the dark elements it had in it's story? No, of course not. Why? Because it's just part of the story, this author isn't telling people to go out there and become a rich handsome kidnapper who blackmails someone into living and having sex with them.

Again, everyone is allowed to hate the work as much as they want to, BUT being a TL and ruining the work with your negativity is shitty, go put your notes at the bottom of the page not in the middle of the work, or just don't work on stuff you hate it if you can't help parading your hate around.

Second, unless the author has a real life scandal or crime, or their work has real life implications of promoting any immoral and unethical motives, then there's no good or justifiable reason why you'd go so far as to wish and pray for something horrible to happen to them.

You'd be a hypocrite for exclaiming how much you hate the characters for being immoral, yet here you are wishing evil prayers on real life people. (I've literally seen a commenter say they hope the author dies... wtf).

    Aight well I've had my say. Their last comment has nothing to do with the topic anymore... well neither did the rest of their replies tbh, they were mostly just harassments and insults.In summary of this thread... Watcher

    Are you serious? Narrating in 3rd person to no one using big words to fit a word count isn't impressive nor imitating especially when you're sill saying a whole bunch of nothing, you have no point. Get over yourself English lit.
